Hey #frontend, #html, #web_dev, #dev I'm not sure where to address this question:
In Firefox an svg icon with fill: currentColor, doesn't follow the color of a visited link, while webkit based browsers do. Any idea _why_ ? Is it somehow related to the privacy concerns regarding :visited links ?
To exemplify my question, here's a jsfiddle to test in Chrome and Firefox: https://jsfiddle.net/sgujecfL/8
@vinnl thanx for the suggestion, I was thinkig also that the bug tracker might be where I end up with this. :)
And yes, currentColor is a boon for using svg icons instead of a full size pre-made icon font.
Glad I could help.
@mariusor Wow, that was triaged really quickly. Apparently a recent bug :)
@vinnl in a servo component no less. Pretty cool that they are looking into it this quick.
@mariusor I don't have a solution, but today I learned about currentColor, so thanks!
Honestly though, it sounds like a bug. Given that you've already made the reproducible test case, I'd report it at bugzilla.mozilla.org.
